i recently seen that my friends accross the street are growing mourning glorys. ive done the glory before but they arent heavenly blues or flying saucers. the flowers are kinda of a purplish color with sort of a star coming from the center (the star is lighter colored growth) with this little information that i gave you is this species psychoactive and if so how do i harvest the seeds. much respect and one love

Hum.. not too sure about this species been psychoactive, but you can always try... To harvest the seeds, have a look out for the seed pods ( little ovale "beans") and wait until they are starting to dry up. just cut the pod and let it dry at home. There's about 3-4 seeds per pod, but a good sized morning glory plant will give up to 100-200 pods...

I've done some pretty extensive physical research into the alkaloid content (or lack there of) of the wild pink hued morning glories... even after consuming massive quantities of the seeds extracted in alcohol, cold water, various other methods, I experienced only a mild buzz, elevation of temperature, dilation of pupils... probably due to other ergot-based alkaloids found in morning glory seeds(?) Anyway, the pink ones dont seem to be too active, you're more likely to poison yourself by overdosing on the other chemicals than get a buzz However, its worth a try at least once, it could be a different subspecies than the one here, and growing conditions could also affect alkaloid content. To harvest the seeds its best to get a plastic tray or bowl, and in the fall after the flowers are gone you will see these brown seedpods about the size of peas on the end of dried tips of the vines. They are fairly fragile, and if you just crunch it between your fingertips and hold the bowl underneath, 1-4 small black seeds should fall out. Keep this up for about an hour and you'll have all you need.A good way to get the most out of them is to throw about 15 grams into a coffee grinder, turn it into a fine powder, mix with a couple of shots of high proof alcohol... let it set for an hour, strain it into a blender through a t-shirt or cloth, because coffee filters have too small of holes, and the soap-like compounds in the seeds hold the liquid inside of them for too long, blend this on high for a minute or so until foam/bubbly stuff accumulates on the top, its lighter colored and makes a distinctive layer. scoop that stuff off and throw it away, its the part that makes you very nauseated. Drink the rest however you can, and still expect some nausea this works good with the store bought seeds anyhow. I've found lsa to cause a pretty heavy body load, pronounced auditory hallucinations, to such an extent that when I was listening to music, the sound was totally covered up by white noise static, and replaced by another melody altogether in my head o_O. Anyway.... too much information, I'll shut up now
